Need a Custom Rubber Component for Transportation Equipment?

Whether you’re developing a heavy-duty bumper, sourcing a suspension component or transferring an existing part to a new supplier, Qualiform’s technical team can review your application and manufacturing requirements.

Custom Rubber Manufacturing Capabilities

Selecting the right compound is essential for transportation rubber parts exposed to repeated compression, abrasion, moisture, temperature changes and chemicals.

Qualiform works with a variety of materials, including EPDM for applications requiring weather and ozone resistance, nitrile for oil-resistant components, and natural rubber and SBR for selected impact and vibration-control applications. Neoprene and other specialty compounds may also be considered based on the operating environment.

Material properties, hardness and formulation should be evaluated against the part’s specific load, deflection and durability requirements.

Qualiform offers compression, injection and transfer molding for custom transportation components. Compression molding is used for larger rubber parts, including documented suspension and loading dock bumpers. Transfer molding can accommodate intricate designs and components requiring inserts or bonding.

Rubber-to-metal bonding combines elastomeric properties with metal components for applications such as suspension parts, mounts and isolators. Qualiform can also evaluate existing tooling from manufacturers transferring production to a new supplier. Some molds may require modification.
